I was a big fan of the Star Wars movies until I saw Attack of the Clones. The Phantom Menace had great action and special effects which barely managed to make up for the dreadful acting. In Attack of the Clones the action scenes were all that kept me from falling asleep during this dreadful movie. The plot was hard to follow and it kept coming back to terribly acted scenes where all you wanted to do was strangle one of the lead characters to get them to shut up. One of the ultimate worst lines goes like this, "I've been dying a little bit each day since you came back into my life." To say this line is spoken in a monotone is giving it too much credit. All the lines are spoken in this same fashion and I found it difficult not to turn it off. As I said before, the only reason I didn't turn it off was to see the action scenes which were quite impressive. Ewan Macgregor who plays Obi-Wan should be recognized as the only person in the movie who can act. The strange thing is all the other actors, such as Natalie Portman and Samuel L Jackson, have proved their acting skills in other movies. Is George Lucas to blame? I don't know. If you have the good fortune not to have seen this movie already, then I suggest you don't and spare yourself the boredom.

The plot was really bad. This kid finds out he is a leprechaun and he loses his lucky coin so he has to find it to save his family. The main boy(Ryan Merriman) was good. I think he is a pretty talented actor. His best friend was a pretty good actor too.
